    These Drake stans acting like 402K isn’t an underperformance is hilarious considering the fact that two weeks ago they were in here predicting 600-700K first week.

    A 23 track Drake album doing less than 500K, less than 450K is surprising no matter how you try to slice it

    I would like to see receipts of who predicted 600-700k

    It isn't, but the blowback comes from niggas being fans of wildly successful artists while trying to act like they have a chip on their shoulder

    And this isn't even mutually exclusive to Drake at all, but this the kind of reaction that happens 💀

    Drake is gonna have to re-evaluate his thoughts on physicals if he ever wants to push 500k+ units 1st week again. His numbers will keep falling if he continues to go the whole streaming only route. Maybe he doesn’t care anymore but if that’s the case then he might as well just give us shorter concise albums and say f*** the numbers

    He's not bothered to sell physicals why you so worried that he isn't😭

    Travis sold more, so he's bigger than Drake

    Anyways, congratulations to Drake! Fourth album in 25 months and still putting up monster numbers despite all the hate

    No lie tho the music he's making doesn't appeal to the people in the bubble either tho like beyond the hard-core stans on here I've seen alot of Drake fans hate on it.

    Like this would make sense if the music was good and he was artistically pursuing something but he's just making music that doesn't sell or get good reception.

    Plus given the fact he didn't plan this albums production out well enough that he had to stop touring to wrap it up this seems less "I'm just doing this style of music" and more just pure unfocused.

    This aint a 808s or Yeezus thing this is a TLOP and Donda thing

    This aint a 808s or Yeezus thing this is a TLOP and Donda thing I feel this, but namely with Scorpion and CLB and now FATD

    I think one Drake convo that isn’t on the table is the convo about the trajectory of his immediate album demand. Much like we were talking about how unfair it is to pit him against artists who sell physicals, it’s unfair to judge him in the arena of S tier immediate album demand. That’s reserved for artists who drop four quadrant smashes, which is something Drake hasn’t cared to do since 2018. The reason CLB’s numbers didn’t suffer from this recent change in Drake’s music is cause it was so hyped and we didn’t know it would be his first studio album since Scorpion that wouldn’t have those type of smashes on it

    Drake’s numbers rn aren’t impressive compared to previous years but Drake rn isn’t old Drake. And the masses know it. They want Hotline Bling, One Dance, Gods Plan, Nice For What, In My Feelings. Y’all think this nigga is about to do Views and Scorpion and post-Scorpion hype numbers without that?

    Drake’s current numbers are impressive for the artist he is now

    I ain't read all this but I agree

    Drake so humble he delayed the drop cause he didn't want to sell a million again in respect of rap legends, what a hero
